    Jim Schwartz, addressing the media at the NFL Combine on Thursday, indicated the Lions might appeal the tampering charge the league has levied upon them according to Chris McCosky of the Detroit News. "I think that too much has been said about something that should be confidential," Schwartz said. "I am disappointed so much has come out. "But we have received that notification (from the league) and I believe firmly in our case and we reached the wrong conclusion in that. We still have some options we can pursue." The Lions have until Monday to file an appeal.
